The Lord is my Shepherd








Monday will be my Dad's birthday. I lost him 6 years ago to brain cancer and I have to tell you, it never gets better. It does get easier but it never gets better. I miss him more than words can ever say. I know that he is with me everyday watching over me. I made this card in memory of my dad. He walked so close with God while he was here on this Earth living everyday by his word. I got the idea from a picture that has been in my house for years. My mom had it in our house growing up and I have it in my house now and I am sure that so many of you have it in your house too. It is the Home Interior picture of the old church with the sheep in the field and it has on the front of it "The Lord is my Shepherd". This picture is hanging in my guest bathroom because a very dear friend of mine told me once that you should always have a scripture of some kind hanging in your bathroom because whenever you have company over they are sure to use your bathroom so you want them to be able to see it. I have to tell you, I have a scripture picture/plaque of some kind in every room of my house because I want to make sure that no matter what room people are in at my house they will know that I live by God's word. On the outside it says "The Lord is my Shepherd" and on the inside I put the entire verse on the left hand side and left the right hand side blank. thank you so much for looking and thank you so much for commenting. They really do mean the world to me.
